General Information

The El Paso County Sheriff's Office Public Information Section has the important responsibility of serving as a liaison between the media, community and the Sheriff's Office. We continually strive to provide this service to our citizenry with the tenets of community oriented policing as the foundation of this section.

Specifically, the Public Information Section is responsible for the dissemination of accurate and timely public safety information to the community through media releases, social media, and various publications. By performing this service, we serve as the conduit through which the public is made aware of matters that are of interest to our community.

Reporters and news agencies provide an essential service by distributing information to citizens in a timely fashion, especially during a time of crisis.  The Public Information Officers build cooperative partnerships with the media and provide them with accurate and timely information.
